Historical Context
A. Mylne & Co. was established in 1896 and, during the first decade of its operation, undertook commissions ranging from small cruising yachts to larger racing designs. Design 48, completed in 1900, falls early in the firm's catalogue. The engagement of Hilditch of Carrickfergus as builder reflects the interconnected nature of yacht design and construction across the Irish Sea during this period. By 1900, Mylne had completed dozens of designs; many were of larger or more ambitious vessels, making Corona one of the smaller works on record. The lack of detailed documentation on this particular yacht is typical of many minor commissions from the era, particularly those built outside Scotland.
